I opened Publisher and I have one big black area. All toolbars are missing. I can get tools back but that is it! So what I am not doing/finding to put everything back. I was able to bring back a couple toolbars with View, I guess I just don't know how to bring back the rest.  Attached a pic of what I am seeing now. 

Thanks in advance for your help!aff.png.536d87cd73be771d6458f1a021a86cf8.png

You may have pressed the Tab key and hidden the UI elements.

First, use either File > Open or File > New so you have a document in the workspace. Then try pressing Tab and you should get more of the UI visible.

Check View>Show toolbar.

still haven't figured out to get my font selection tool bar on top again

View > Show Context Toolbar for that one, if using Tab doesn't work for you.
